Histochemical Localization and Antioxidant Potential of Lipids from the Root, Stem and Leaf of Salicornia neei Lag
Resumo
Investigations were carried out with the Salicornia neei Lag plant, evaluating the biotechnological potential in the synthesis of lipids, starting with the histochemical location in the tissues of the stem and leaf structures, observing the intense coloration of the oil droplets present in the cells, which were stained black or dark blue, in both structures. In this study, the content of total lipids were evaluated, in addition to evaluating their potential to antioxidant activities. The total lipids of the root and leaf showed higher values corresponding to approximately 10,06% and 5.67%, respectively, and the stem 3.07%. The studies carried out also demonstrated high antioxidant activity in the root, stem and leaf, allowing the application of Salicornia neei in the food industry and as a candidate for the pharmaceutical area.
